FEINSTEIN says she’s sorry to Grassley for not giving him a headsup about the release of the Fusion GPS transcript. “I meant to tell him, and I didn’t have a chance to tell him, and that concerns me,” she told us. “I just got pressured, and I didn’t do it.”

She effectively gave all the other witnesses a heads up so they can match their testimony to that of Simpson. She and her ilk are trying to prevent the house of cards from falling on themselves the deep state and their masters that "pressured" her. We are just another banana republic.
